Ashelworth Woodpeckers 0 Abbeymead Rovers Hawks 4
Mid Glos Mini-Soccer League
Under 9 North League
Saturday 12th November 2005
On a pitch which made good passing football difficult, both teams served up an entertaining match. Woodpeckers have a mean defence, losing by the odd goal, to two other top teams in the league. Missing one regular defender, they again put up a strong defence but could not contain a rampant Abbeymead side. Abbeymead attacked from the start and the majority of the game was played in Woodpeckers half. Top scorer, Clayton Dee hit the bar before gliding a superb header in from a Jamal Lawrence cross. Lawrence then doubled the score when his cross was deflected in. Brodie Goddard-Jones was pivotal in midfield creating many chances. Woodpeckers were dangerous on the break but Elliot Obee, Josh Cannon and Elliot Basford defended superbly.
The second half produced more of the same - Clayton Dee hit a post as did Ben Langworthy, Lawrence and Dee had shots which went over the bar. Joe Wilton created more chances for Dee. A quick Langworthy corner was crossed by Goddard-Jones for Dee to tap in and Lawrence got the fourth with a shot through the keepers legs. George Hall kept another clean sheet but again had to make a superb save in the last few minutes as Abbeymead relaxed. Harry Benfield had a strong game in defence for the Woodpeckers as did Conner Parslo who also went in goal and made a superb save from Dee.
